Samuel Beckett, 14e arrondissement

'ALLÉE

SAMUEL BECKETT

FOXROCK 1906 – 1989

ÉCRIVAIN IRLANDAIS

PRIX NOBEL DE LITTÉRATURE'

It's fitting that this sign should be in an area lived in by Beckett in his last days, near Parc Montsouris where he used to sit.  The 'allée' also reminds me of Hamm's paradoxical words about God in Endgame: 'The bastard! He doesn't exist', because the allée doesn't exist either, there's just this sign in the middle of the avenue René Coty.
